Recommendation for a good performing 9.3X62?

[Hyde Hunter]

I bought a Sauer 100 a few weeks ago and like how it feels and handles, the hard rubber pad and 14.5 LOP sucks which is being corrected now. the trigger is great adjusted to 2.2 pounds.. the only thing I wish would be a longer magazine to seat bullets longer. but it is a neat trim rifle, just wish I could take it to Africa in 8 days but permit has already been approved

Does yours have a wood stock?
As posted above, I like mine a lot including the LOP but looking at he synth stock not sure how it could be shortened?

You could shorten it by buying a wood stock.

Yes, of course. But I don't want one. I like the synthetic stock I have.
My question was just in regards to how a synthetic stock could be shortened. Not sure it can be, so my surmise was that the previous post involved a wood stock.

Therein lies the problem with synthetic stocks.

True enough, among other things. They do have their advantages as well.

Thanks. I do not want mine cut. I like it as-is but was wondering about the technical end for others I know.
Again, thanks.

Look at Simson LTD they sometimes have a ZG 47 in 9.3x62 and I think they had a type B Mauser also.

Yes it can be done. I have had several shortened.

I picked up a Steyr Clii a few years ago after reading good reviews. It feels great on the shoulder and has everything to make it a wonderful African rifle. Still haven’t shot it which is probably the biggest crime.
